You just proved your own point against this.
Massive DPS, that you can't apply, is useless, wasted DPS.
Have,...have you even used a scrambler rifle? |

The SCR has massive DPS due to its ROF but, two good charged shots can kill any suit instantly. DPS does not determine the better gun, low DPS weapons always have high damage per shot like the shot gun, mass driver, and sniper rifles.
No, you...again, have you ever used the SCR?
It's semi-auto. You can't hold down fire and fire multiple times.
Also, 2 charged shots will almost guaranteed overheat the gun, enjoy not doing anything for 4 seconds while your target runs for cover.
And landing two good charged shots on a single target is very, hard to do. Most people aren't stupid enough to hang around after the first drops them into armor, meanwhile you have to hold the charge again, not die, not overheat, have enough ammo, and have fantastic aim to land the next one, assuming you even have a shot. |

A charged shot + headshot means DEATH, no matter if it's a shield or armor tanker.
Saying the scrambler rifle isn't a good weapon is fooling yourself.
Okay, now I'm almost certain you've ever used the weapon seriously.
You're trying to convince people a gun is good based off of paper statistics, which is ridiculous and fallacious. Yes the gun has good stats, but NO it is not nearly that good in game because you're not shooting at static 0% resist 0 skill militia grade suits who sit around waiting for you to headshot them. |
